There's a massive difference in that Lena could sing, Satellites was good and Lena wasn't a complete and utter raging douchecunt

 

'If I Was Sorry' is still a good song and he sings it appropriately enough to charm his audience - like she did back in 2010. Personality won't count for much during those 3 minutes on stage for the casual voter in Malta.

That doesn't mean we can't still be furious.

MF tracks in Sweden's Spotify top ten today...WOW at those numbers for Frans!

 

1 If I Were Sorry - Frans - 546,787

2 Youniverse - Molly Sandén - 224,480

4 Bada Nakna - Samir & Viktor - 212,172

5 Constellation Prize - Robin Bengtsson - 206,694

7 Human - Oscar Zia - 186,424

9 Håll om mig hårt - Panetoz - 174,427

10 Kizunguzungu - SaRaha - 166,281

I think Frans will need to suffer a battering from the Jury to stop him getting the prize.

 

Is this likely? Will the Jury warm to the fact it's an "in" sound and/or shade him for basically being inequipped at holding a tune?! I do hope so...

I think even if the juries rank Frans dead last, he will still take the prize by the overwhelming televote numbers he looks likely to receive.

I really hope Constellation Prize gets a global push somehow, seeing as it's got no chance of winning this now that Frans has shown up. I guess it's more likely to just be another Busy Doin' Nothin'...wasted potential.

If I Were Sorry, has been stuck in my head since Sunday.

Christer Björkman will be revealing the running order for the final live, during andra chansen.

Doesn't work in the UK unfortunately, not sure if it's blocked anywhere else...

 

Ughhh why does it have to be blocked in the UK :drama:

To protect our ears from bleeding. Should be blocked from the entire world.

No.

works fine here

 

haven't seen it tho coz i'd have to care first

Ooh it works now! Great video :heart:

Are we getting a thread to talk about tomorrow?

Swedish official charts (finalists and AC only)

 

 

13. Robin Bengtsson (thought this would do better...still expect it to come top three in the final)

 

To be fair all the finalists (bar AC entrants) have only had 5 and a bit days on Spotify. Its currently #3 on Spotify so will climb a lot next week. If Robin had had the full week it would have likely debuted in the top 5.
